My 15 month old DS has been on orapred (lung infection) since Monday. Also since Monday, nothing makes him happy. If he drops a toy, he wails. If I leave the room, He wails. If I hand him the wrong thing on the table when he asked for something, he wails. Has anyone else had experience with this...

I tell my kids "that's life". You can't always get your way or have everything you want. There are things I would rather have or be doing, but in life there are responsibilities and limits. "Calla" wrote in message ... I...

Weren't people in high risk groups supposed to have gotten them several months ago? Then the leftovers would have been for the lower-risk people. In non-severe flu years, those lower-risk people would have been okay with no shot, but they say this is a bad year. SO............shots for all! Am...

Hi, We have a 15 month old that has started hitting (slapping) when he gets angry. We try to redirect him, or physically take his hand and show him gentle stroking when he hits and we say "be gentle, gentle hands" This sometimes works and sometimes not. Sometimes he will then pat or stroke the...

for the last 3 or 4 months, Chris will go thru periods of major fussiness and screaming. all the signs have pointed towards teething. this seemed confirmed when in early sept. we saw a tiny, hard white spot on his lower gum--the beginning of a tooth. the frustrating part is that, in all...

Due to our need to get out of the house for a week or so, we are taking a short trip interstate to visit family. However no-one was able to organise a highchair where we are going. I've been keeping my eye out for a booster chair on ebay but wasn't organised enough and now there's hardly...

Jaden is growing like a weed and I'm going to have to stop using the infant carseat/carrier this week. I haven't switched to the convertible carseat yet mainly because I can't figure out how to do a couple of things without the carrier, like grocery shopping. He's only three months old, and no...

My 9 week old son will not nap during the day and will sleep no more than 2 hours at a time at night. He wakes up multiple times a night *starving* as if he hasnt been fed in weeks. We've tried increasing his formula intake and that has not helped. We've also tried to just comfort him at night -...

Hello, History: My fiancé and I are both Non-custodial parents. The children are 11, 10, & 9. We have been together for 6 years and we have all three of them every other weekend. Every X-mas and birthday we have bought them almost whatever they have wanted because the custodial parents do not. ...

I'm at my wit's end. My 10 year old wets his pants every day. He doesn't wet the bed at night, just during the day. We've taken our son to a urologist, his regular doctor too - they claim nothing is wrong with him physically. We've tried having him go on a regular basis, tried making him do his...

What do you do with a carseat that is in perfect condition, that you don't need anymore? My seat has stamped into it that it is good until December 2007. "They" say not to use second hand carseats, so that would mean I shouldn't give it to anyone, but it seems a complete waste to just throw this...
